What it does

This calls the command line tool PSORTb v3.0 for prediction of prokaryotic localization sites. The input dataset needs to be protein FASTA sequences. The default output is a simple tabular file with three columns, one row per query sequence:

Column Description
1 Sequence identifier
2 Localisation, e.g. Cytoplasmic
3 Score

The long output is also tabular with one row per query sequence, but has lots more columns (a different set for each supported organism type). In both cases, a simple header line is included (starting with a hash, #, so that Galaxy treats it as a comment) giving the column names.
